of slow trains, to Bombay or to Karachi. Thence, as
steerage passengers, a weary, suffocating voyage to
Jeddah; then the short, dusty, teeming, glorious

Mohammedan Hadji *really believes* in immortality
and makes light of things mundane, as you and I
would do if the creed of after-life were fixed in our
minds as is the creed of next winter's cold weather.
